At least 16 people are dead across the state from a vicious storm that spawned at least five tornadoes there late Friday, officials said Monday.

And the death toll may rise further.

Authorities will resume their search Monday for six people still missing, including four who sought shelter in storm drains, Oklahoma City Fire Chief Keith Bryant said.

The storms left not only a trail of death and destruction, it also sent flood waters surging.

And the damage wasn’t confined to Oklahoma.

In Missouri, a twister left more than 10 miles of significant damage “that caused dozens and dozens of houses to be literally blown up,” Gov. Jay Nixon told CNN affiliate KSDK.

No one was killed in that tornado, but three people drowned in Missouri, Nixon said.

And in Arkansas, flooding killed at least four people: a sheriff’s deputy, a wildlife officer and two women they were trying to save from a deluged home.
